You will likely be approached at places like the Grand Palace and Wat Po and told, falsely, that they are closed today but for a very cheap price a tuk-tuk will take you around the city. The person will seem official and say they are with the Tourism Authority of Thailand. But the TAT doesn't send people out that way. Anyway, if you take the tuk-tuk you will see lesser sights squeezed between trips to tailor stores, jewelers, etc, whether you're interested or not. They may also take you to a travel agent who will imply they are associated with the government. They will book you at a much higher price than you could get on your own. And if you meet an agent named Ninja, run the other way FAST.
